What Buyers Say

Audio-Technica M50XBT Studio

88 out of 100 medium confidence 13 reviews

These headphones are praised for their excellent sound quality, realistic audio reproduction, and versatility with both wired and Bluetooth connections. Users highlight long battery life, comfort for extended wear, and good passive noise isolation. However, the build quality is mostly plastic and not high-end, and there is no active noise cancellation. Overall, they are considered a great value for those who prefer natural sound over artificial bass boosting.

Pros
  • Excellent sound quality
  • Realistic audio reproduction
  • Long battery life (50 hours)
  • Comfortable for extended wear
  • Good passive noise isolation
Cons
  • Plastic build quality
  • No active noise cancellation
  • Not high-end materials

  • No ear cup flip for conversation
